"You know, as a young person you want to believe in a symbiosis with
your partner, which is not always the case. You are lucky if you find love like

"True. Did he have many secrets?"
“Yes, he did. He went away to weird meetings at all times of the day,
weekends as well. He used to always carry a gun, which obviously is against
German law, but what surprised more, was that it wasn’t necessary. He was well-
gaurded once he started to have success in the business."
"Interesting. Let’s agree that I'll stop by next week for another meeting. I
have to leave nu now, but know this, your information has been extremely
useful." Tom finishes his tea and gets up, looking for his coat.
Inge-Lise insists on following him all the way to his car, even though it is
still snowing heavily outside. He can’t help to think whether this old lady will trip
and fall flat in the snow, especially with a rusty knee like that.
"Remember," she says with a slightly worried gaze. "I have always been a
bit of a rebel by heart and followed my intuition in nearly every aspect of my life.
My intution tells me that Johan is still alive, try to find him."
Tom nods as he leaves her place.
On his way back to the car, he exclaims out loud. “Fuck,” Tom has found
out via church books that Gustav has been adopted and he finds the woman who
has adopted him.
